Head Coach Mr. Kortz says his keys to success is the press and attacking the rim.

“We wanted to get after them and cause turnovers and also attack. We sometimes settle but at this tournament we wanted to attack the rim and finish because the rims shake and we haven’t shotton is well in the past years,” Mr. Kortz said.

The girls definitely got after it taking third overall in the tournament.

Varsity girls forward Jessica Alba added, ”Overall our team played well even though we beat ourselves when playing at times but we were able to bring it back and win games after our loss to Evergreen Park.”

Evergreen Park was the girls only loss at the tournament and their third of the season. With the height of the season here, the look to continue to improve on an already solid 3-0 record vs. conference opponents and 15-3 record overall.
